This is for INBOUND emails. Here's my last test session:
host01:/home/jd $telnet localhost 25
Trying...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 host01.xxxxxx.com ESMTP Sendmail @(#)Sendmail version 8.13.3 - Revision 2.001 - 2005/02/12/8.13.3; Wed, 8 Jul 2009 15:09:29 -0400 (EDT)
EHLO test.com
250-host01xxxxxx.com Hello localhost [127.0.0.1], pleased to meet you

250-8BITMIME
250-SIZE 4096000
250-DSN
250-ETRN
250-DELIVERBY
250 HELP
MAIL FROM: jd@test.com
250 2.1.0 jd@test.com... Sender ok
RCPT TO: jd@blatt.com
250 2.1.5 jd@blatt.com... Recipient ok
DATA
354 Enter mail, end with "." on a line by itself
this is a test message
.
.
at this point, nothing happens...the connection will eventually timeout and close the connection. I've tried it from three different hosts and two different terminal programs...no change in results. Using different FROM: and TO: addresses also have no effect.
Thanks for the help

LEARN ABOUT DEBIAN
sendmailconfig
SENDMAILCONFIG(8) System Manager's Manual SENDMAILCONFIG(8) NAME
sendmailconfig - configure sendmail for Debian systems SYNOPSIS
sendmailconfig [--no-reload] DESCRIPTION
sendmailconfig is used to simplify the configuration of sendmail(8) for use on Debian systems. In the simplest case, you may run this program to (re)configure sendmail for your Debian system at any time. It will modify the file /etc/mail/sendmail.mc in order to create a working sendmail configuration which will be written to the file /etc/mail/sendmail.cf. For advanced configurations, you can modify the sendmail.mc file before generating sendmail.cf. Future invokations of sendmailconfig will preserve these changes provided they are made at the end of the file. Normally sendmailconfig will ask if you want to reload sendmail after making changes to its configuration. The --no-reload option will avoid this question. FILES
/etc/mail/sendmail.mc sendmail m4 input to generate sendmail.cf /etc/mail/sendmail.cf actual sendmail configuration file /etc/mail/sendmail.cw names for which we will accept mail in the standard configuration /etc/mail/sendmail.ct names of trusted users in the standard configuration SEE ALSO
